Pageviews Analysis now has support for the monthly granularity:

http://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&start=2015-07&end=2016-12&pages=Barack_Obama|Donald_Trump|Hillary_Clinton|Bernie_Sanders

...which is much more decipherable than the same range with daily granularity!:

http://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&start=2015-07-01&end=2016-12-31&pages=Barack_Obama|Donald_Trump|Hillary_Clinton|Bernie_Sanders


Thanks to the Analytics team and GCI! :)
